can anyone tell me really is this worth 60$ more than the blood iron is?? best price i can find on it is 168$ while i can get the blood iron for 106 shipped.. so a 62$ difference.. i think id rather have a lanparty series but some tell me the blood iron is basically the same as this board while others tell me this mobo will stomp the blood iron... someone help please....

Good question... it looks like they have similar components, but different layouts. The Blood mb is physically not as deep as the Dark (205mm vs 245mm), but aside from the impact that has on layout, I'm not sure what that means (the Dark would heave better rigidity/support due to additional mount-points). It does look like the Dark has better PWM cooling - and possibly PWM components.

Personally, the Blood Iron reminds me of one of those cheap-ass, cost-reduced ASUS boards But I have no idea if it can perform the same as the Dark.
